Feedsack fabric
One of our quilt guild members brought in a bag with 79 yards of feedsack fabrics. A yard of each. I couldn't resist and bought 21 yards of fabric!! I somehow wanted the whole sack and now I'm questioning myself. What would I have done with all of it. But, I'm happy with my 21yards. She thought maybe we could get a dollar or two for each. We settled on $4 each.

I have never sewn on feed sack fabric before. Will want to see what you make out of this bundle of fabrics.

When I was a child, my mom made our clothes from feedsacks. But - that was a long time ago. I've only seen - and have - reproductions in my possession now.

The fabric is very soft. She said it smelled so she washed the daylights out of it. I fave a pattern all picked out to showcase the fabric.

All I can say is "lucky duck!" My brown eyes are now green, lol. I love feed sack. I havesoms, but haven't decided what to do with it yet. I like your pattern, make sure to let us see the finished quilt.

I would have bought all she had for that was a steal. You can't find it around here

They are pretty to me. When I was growing up my mother use to buy sacks of flour that when you went through all the flour you had a pillow case left.
